Privacy notice

information on data protection 

www.europaeischer-kulturpreis.de and www.europaeisches-kulturforum.de 

In the following we would like to briefly explain how we stand on data protection, how we protect your data and what it means for you when you use our customizable services. Basically, our attitude is that protecting your privacy is of the utmost importance. Therefore, compliance with the legal provisions on data protection is a matter of course for us. In addition, it is important to us that you always know when we store which data and how we use it. 

What are personal data? 

Personal data is all information about the personal and factual circumstances of a specific or identifiable person. This includes information and details such as your name, address or other postal address, telephone number. Your e-mail address is also included if it is related to your name in such a way that you can be identified. This does not include information that cannot be used to determine your identity. Such information is, for example, only height, only gender or age or education or income. 

When and where is your personal data collected and stored? 

Your personal data is collected and stored if you use one of our personalized or interactive services or if you register for one, for example to order a newsletter or order tickets. If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the contact details you provided there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in the event of follow-up questions. We do not pass on this data without your consent. 

All of your personal information is stored on a specially protected server and only used for the purposes that you have given us. 

Information, Deletion, Blocking 

You have the right to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipient and the purpose of the data processing as well as a right to correction, blocking or deletion of this data at any time. For this and other questions on the subject of personal data 

you can contact us at any time at the address given in the imprint. 

What about IP addresses etc.? 

When you access this website, possible identification data (IP address) and other information (date, time, page viewed) are stored on our server for data security purposes. The data is not evaluated, with the exception of statistical purposes and then in anonymous or pseudonymised form (ie IP address shortened by several numbers or encrypted in a different number sequence). 

Use of the Facebook "Like" button 

Our website uses the "Like" button of the social network facebook.com. This special service is operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA ("Facebook"). The button is marked with the Facebook logo and the addition "Like". 

When you visit a page on our website that contains the button, your browser establishes a direct connection to the Facebook servers. The content of the plugin is transmitted directly from Facebook to your browser, which integrates it into the website. 

When called up, Facebook thus receives the information that someone has called up the corresponding page of our website. If you are logged into Facebook at this moment, Facebook can assign the visit to your Facebook account - even if you do not click the button. If you press the "Like" button, the corresponding information is transmitted directly from your browser to Facebook and stored there. 

Information on the purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by Facebook as well as your setting options to protect your privacy can be found in Facebook's data protection guidelines. 

If you do not want Facebook to collect personal data about you via our website, all you have to do is log out of Facebook before you visit our website.
